i've been playing in my studio
{while listening to really loud music and occasionally dancing}
and
honestly
loving it
~
i used to spend hours in that sweet little room
and
then my passion for art and paint dwindled
while my passion for photography soared
~
now i'm combining the two and working on some new projects and ideas
and
today with the help of my hubby
i even worked on some dreams
as he took my big and wild and not even close to perfected thoughts
and
juggled them brilliantly for me
~
he's so great that way
anyhow
today i just wanted to remind you
that what you love
might look slightly or even hugely different from what someone else loves
but
no worries
~
remember
it's all in the eye of the beholder
and
more importantly
it's all in that beholder's heart
and
if it's in your heart
well
then
now we're talking

You know what I love and think is beautiful? These pictures!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the softness and gently faded effect...please please tell me...how did you do it? I have been looking for a way to do this for some time now!
A quick catch-up as I look down over all the posts I've missed. I'm so glad you're mixing your media -- I love what you do now, love what you did then!

I feel excitement brewing...Your husband sounds just as wonderful as you, by the way! ♥
ReplyDeleteExactly right. We see things in someone or something and accept it and love it for us, for the place we are in and the journey to get where we are now.
ReplyDeleteI love the synchronicity I am finding in my brief blog hopping this morning. All my favorite people seem to be talking about doing what you love. Amen to that!
ReplyDeleteOh wow, I just found your blog. Beautiful pictures! You truly have such a sweet and romantic style. Your photos are perfect. Thank you for sharing the world through your eyes :) And so sweet that your hubby supports your dreams :)
